A BIG DAY FOR ALEX!~

What an exciting time for the Norton family today! Alex took out his endowment and Tony was able to be his attendant and we both got to officiate the session. It was so awesome! I was so thrilled to see Scott come in as well. I love the support he gives! Stillman was so appreciative of the effort Scott gives! ME TOO!~

There were 11 of us in the session with Alex ! It was wonderful to see the support given him!

After it was over, we met out by the pond to take pictures.

I LOVE the Hibiscus plant that is growing there! 

BEAUTIFUL!~ 

The reflection in the pond is so cool! We feel so blessed to live in such a beautiful community with two temples in our midst!

We had a GREAT family turnout! 

Missing Scott in this picture!

After the BIG family photo, Michelle asked if anyone wanted a picture with Alex!  OF COURSE! We jumped right in!

I love the sun rays coming down on us! Reminds me of the picture Heather took of my dads grave when he was buried. The Lord shines down on such marvelous events!

Alex and his Gramma Donna!

Great Gramma Lynn,  AKA: GG with Alex

Alex and his Aunt Bridgit. She was kind enough to baby sit Stillman's and Michelle's kids as well as Jordan's, so she wasn't at the endowment session but she and most of the kids were at the temple when we got out! SWEET!~

Aunt Tammy and Alex!~

Jordan and his family and Alex!

AND, the PROUD PARENTS!~  

Alex and Michelle!

THE STAR of the DAY!~

Alex, himself!~

He's going to be such a good missionary. 

We are so proud of him!

Aunt Joyce wanted a picture with him too so Lynn (the sisters) got in one with him together!

We went to CHUCK A RAMA after our little phot session and I got a picture of everyone who came  to eat. Scott had to get home so he could go to Scotlyn's volleyball tournament.

I laughed at this one!  As soon as I got the one with Tony looking at me, he filled his face again!  lol

The kids all dispersed and are going to the BSU game at 5. We are going over to Lynn's to watch it and hope to see some of the kids on the BIG SCREEN!

BUMMER!  BSU lost by 2 points on their home field!!  The first loss in 21 Home Opener games!  If we hadn't have had such a good morning and afternoon, I'd have been really down! I have to keep telling myself, "It's just a game"....
